Rizful.com Frequently Asked Questions
Does Rizful.com have an app on the App Store or Google Play?
No, it does not. We have some good excuses, too:
-
You can easily install Rizful on your phone by adding it to your home screen. It works just like an app, but you don't have to download anything or update it. It's always the latest version.
-
Lightning is an "online-only" payment technology. You cannot send Lightning payments if your phone is offline. Of course, your Rizful.com vaults are always running, so they can receive payments even if your phone is off. But sending payments requires an internet connection, so a mobile app would be of limited use.
-
The Lightning Network is private and secure by default. Native mobile apps rely on Apple's and Google's infrastructure for push notifications, which means those companies could theoretically see when your payments arrive. A web app in your browser has no such dependency unless you choose to turn browser notifications on.
-
Google and Apple routinely reject Bitcoin and Lightning apps from their stores.
Can I accept Bitcoin payments on my website or app with Rizful?
Yes. Use OpenReceive, a free, open-source library from Megalith: paste its agent directions into your coding agent, give it a receive-only NWC code from Rizful, and payments land in your vault with no account, API key, or KYC.
Can I test NWC safely?
Yes. Create a dedicated test vault with a few hundred sats in it and hand out NWC codes for that vault only. If an app misbehaves, your main balance is never at risk, and you can delete the code at any time.
